Its a favourite trick of the Poli's to hide something away in Committee and
call for many ,many reports, and delay things that they are trying to stop
in the hope, that it will just go away.
at the moment I am in the middle of a battle of letters to the Editor trying
to save the BG into Wodonga.
The Council is Hell-bent on removing the Railway station and Goods Yards and
releasing the land for development, I will scan the relevant letters and
place them before the Newsgroup, as I need help with some of the facts [my
figures are somewhat rubbery, as my friends of this group must know by now]
But one letter in particular shows how something that should have been done
in 1942 is still being delayed to this very day
